Giant Steps Sinlge Vineyard Release 2024 ( check the whole range here ）

⭐ 97 Points – Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion (31 July 2025)

“A blend of Gingin and Bernard clones planted in ’97 between 100 and 200m in Gruyere. 20% new oak and 10% MLF. Another salivating and seductive Sexton Chardonnay with its bouquet of stone fruits, preserved lemons, freshly ground coffee beans and roasted hazelnut. The beautifully balanced and tightly coiled palate is underpinned by its concentration and intensity. Finishes saline and extremely long. It's all here and needs another five to seven years, at least, to reach its zenith.”

⭐ 96 Points – Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front (11 August 2025)

“Gentle reduction, stonefruit, brine, ginger, river-stones and a dry, almost salty feel on the finish. Gentle infusion of mango skin and citrus but juicy and fine throughout. There’s so much finesse to this release. There’s fantastic intensity to the fruit too; just when you think it’s finished it keeps on throwing punches. The small make has added, it would seem, to both the power and to the length here. This is a sensational Sexton Chardonnay.”
